AI in Education | UAE Schools | Future of Education | Future-Proofing Schools | Education Beyond Marks | Dr. S. Reshma Podcast | MoneyPetrol What does the future of education in the UAE look like? 🌍 Are schools preparing students for a world shaped by AI, technology, creativity, and changing career paths? 🤖 In this episode of Impact Makers by MoneyPetrol by RG Group, we are joined by Dr. S.

With 30 years of international education leadership experience, Dr. Reshma discusses UAE schools, AI in education, digital literacy, financial literacy, emotional intelligence, student leadership, creativity, critical thinking, and holistic education.  The conversation explores why good grades alone may not be enough for a child&#39;s future, the importance of parent-school partnerships, and how students can develop confidence, resilience, problem-solving skills, and real-world abilities.  Dr. Reshma also explains why AI should be seen as a partner rather than a replacement for teachers, while highlighting the importance of critical thinking and knowing how to distinguish facts from misinformation.

Emre Ozgen sits down with MoneyPetrol’s first Investment Compass segment to share the parallels he sees between the growing logistics economies of Romania and Dubai. As a subject matter expert at Cultivate Capital Partners, Ozgen explains how the supply chain in Romania is transforming trade in the EU. With 25 years in corporate finance and merger acquisition, he is skilled at identifying and overseeing high-value deals across agriculture, real estate, and industrial production. Ozgen describes the restructuring of the supply chain taking place in Romania. Large scale manufacturers and logistics operators are seeking to move and develop cost-efficient structures that are closer to their customers. The nation’s geographical location makes Bucharest and Constanța a gateway to Western Europe, mirroring the role the UAE plays in re-exporting to the Middle East and Africa. As nations continue to diversify from non-renewable energy revenues, the logistics and freight industry booms. <a href="https://www.mordorintelligence.com/industry-reports/romania-freight-and-logistics-market" rel="nofollow">⁠Romania’s freight and logistics market was valued⁠</a> at USD 21.1 billion in 2025 and is expected to grow on an upward trajectory, reaching USD 25 billion in the next 5 years. To learn more about this dynamic and rapidly growing region, watch our episode with Emre Ozgen.
